Wow. Just wow.
If email ads affect how you’re going to vote.... Just sayin’.
They didn’t try to hide it.
Well, I think their suspicion is that it might make a difference in contributions, which isn’t quite as weird. Plus, it shows how thorough they are in leaving no stone unturned, no matter how iffy the results should be.
Try reading the article. The bias affected fundraising, not voting.
Headers make the day. 😊🙌
I would say not doing what they promise costs them more in fundraising than what google is doing.
Get this regulated so that ALL political ads go to spam folder.
Remember big tech was canceling and/or outing conservative sites after the 2020 election? Trump supporters getting fired due to support of Jan 6th efforts. Lots of talk of ditching big tech social media, using Googleless phones and non tracking search engines, etc., etc. Talk was of the real possiblity of the new admin helping big tech in those efforts. I did a total op sec cleanup in all areas. I’m not worried about social credit nonsense because there are no bread crumbs being dropped. But I think many have fallen back to sleep.
True, but every message delivered has a cumulative effect. If people are getting "D" messages, even thought they may not donate, it can have an effect on their voting. I'd guess that many weak-minded and uninformed people respond to an inbox full of "D" messages and a dearth of "R" messages. They could infer that the "D"s are a lot stronger party and deserve their vote. Remember, it's not the one single technique that tilts an election, but the combined effect of scores or hundreds of such techniques the D's deploy.
I noticed a bunch of GOP and Trump fundraising email in spam the other day. I also noticed it sends firearms advertising to spam at an alarming rate as well.
...As the Republican National Committee sums it up in its complaint to the Federal Election Commission, the Gmail algorithm sent GOP fundraising e-mails to spam at a rate 820% higher than Dem ones.

This sort of examples of malfeasance on the part of Big Tech is why the Left is so freaked out about Elon buying Twitter. They never thought someone from outside the cabal might come in and lift the lid on how Big Tech has been systematically biasing searches, email, suppressing news, etc.
LOL! Yeah, since I didn’t read anything past the header originally, upon further reading it appears that the goggle folks misdirect the stuff concerning fund raising. But, again, if emails get you to cough up money........ All the crap I get goes to the trash immediately if not sooner when it comes to political correspondence. Unless it’s boiler plate responses from my (s)elected (non)representatives. Then it gets saved. For what, I don’t know. :>}
Outlook censors e-mail based on the title.
This is obviously an illegal in-kind campaign contribution from Alphabet to the Democrat party.

It should have been obvious to every one for many years that using google for anything is dumb.
Ping. You guys still think you are on the right side of this?
